Baked Potato item in Minecraft

Present since 1.4.2 or earlier Stack size: 64

The Baked Potato is what a potato becomes after a stay in a furnace, a smoker or over a campfire. It restores five hunger points with good saturation, which makes a potato field one of the easiest ways to feed yourself early on.

It is obtained in the Furnace from Potato (other recipes also exist). It can be composted: each one has a 85% chance to add a layer to a Composter.

What it does

Potatoes are cheap to grow, each plant gives back several, and baking them multiplies their value: a raw potato restores a single point, a baked one five. A smoker bakes them twice as fast as a furnace, and a campfire does it without fuel, four at a time.

A baked potato is also one of the ingredients of Rabbit Stew, with cooked rabbit, a carrot, a mushroom and a bowl. It stacks to sixty-four, so a single slot holds a long journey's worth of food.

Unused ones go into a composter with a high chance of adding a layer. Trial chamber spawners and supply chests sometimes hand out baked potatoes as rewards.
